Sepia Saturday 257 : 6 December 2014

There is something for everybody in Sepia Saturday 257 (post your posts on or around Saturday 6th December 2014). There is a father and son, there is a dog, there are some wooden steps, and there is even a little cowboy with a lasso. The 1916 picture comes from the Flickr stream of the Provincial Archives of Alberta. If you can match some aspect of the theme image do so. If not, don't worry, just post any old photo and tell us a little about it.

Before you head off to lasso yourself a sepia post, take a look at what is coming up for the remainder of 2014.

258 : Scenes cropped from the background of other photographs,

sailors, and people walking away.

259 : Our traditional Christmas and New Year double-issue gives you families, meals, and - of course - Christmas.

There you go : just take a step towards a perfect Sepia Saturday post and link it to the list below.

Sepia Saturday

Launched by Alan Burnett and Kat Mortensen in 2009, Sepia Saturday provides bloggers with an opportunity to share their history through the medium of photographs. Historical photographs of any age or kind (they don't have to be sepia) become the launchpad for explorations of family history, local history and social history in fact or fiction, poetry or prose, words or further images. If you want to play along, all we ask is that your sign up to the weekly Linky List, that you try to visit as many of the other participants as possible, and that you have fun.
